The board (and pc) is only 18-months old. There is a "24-month return to base" warranty, but I don't know if they are still available.

If XP needs to be re-installed will I loose all that is on the Hard Drive?

Peter.

If it is still under warranty take it back and get them to fix it :thumbs:

As for the hard drive , you might be able to get away with just installing new drivers over the old ones, or if you have partitioned your drive and want to format you can just format the partition with XP on it.

Anyway this is all just assuming that it is in fact that it's the mobo. Best to have the correct diagnosis before worrying about might need to be done later.

No, I had no partitions on C:\ drive.
